Summary
“So has he taken your case then?”
“Case?” Sloane felt utterly lost.
“Well, it’s just that most of the people he sees rush out of here in tears or fury, and you look rather… well. I take it he’s accepted your case?” The man gestured up the stairs. “It must be a good one if it’s got him interested. He’s been picky about them for weeks,” he added, more to himself than to her.
“Pardon me, but I think there’s been a misunderstanding,” she said. “I live here.”
Sloane Worth is a young academic who moves to London for a change of scenery. After making friends with the doctor and detective upstairs, she gets swept up in their world of crime and mystery. Her talent for reading people as well as she reads books could rival the detectives' own, and soon she finds herself trying to untangle more than a web of crime but her heart strings as well.
Scene one takes place just before the blind banker.
